Experience

Gaining and using your experience happens at every level of our life. A little child quickly learns that if he cries and screams and gets what he wants that he should keep doing that. As you get older you learn what happens when you treat people bad. You gain experience when you go to a place you have never been before. You gain experience when you are in a situation you have never been in before. The key is to use this experience to your advantage throughout your life. Every single shred of experience information gives us clues to what will work in the future and things we should stay away from. The amount of information increases as you get older. The more experience you have then, the simpler different situations should be. But this isn’t always the case. Many time we either forget, or just choose to ignore, certain bits of knowledge because we “want” a particular result. The problem is that if you think the situation will change or be different even though you are doing the same things, well you are wrong. Use your experience to navigate around the pitfalls so you can get to those new opportunities and get some more great experiences! :)
